The Squirrel.
The wind blew through the crimson leaves, and the shiver of autumn’s arrival hung in the air. The city’s streetlights were lighting up one by one as people returned home on busy streets.
The neighborhood park was filled with life as I noticed a chubby grey squirrel and how he was staring at me with disdain.
So I asked the critter, “What’s the matter?” I knew the animal couldn’t understand me, and yet I asked the rodent another question. “Are you doing okay?” I asked him.
The squirrel flicked his fluffy tail over and over, then he scurried up the towering trunk of a pine tree. I continued to watch as the squirrel climbed up the branches, and his disdain was still etched on his face.
The world isn’t always a wonderful place, and the squirrel was likely to have been experiencing a horrible day. I walked away from the tree as I continued down the light grey sidewalk. The cold air nipped at my ankles as I continued on my way home. “Good-bye!” I called back to the grey squirrel.

Jon Eckart:
So... if you were drafting a cast (let's say voice, as if animated, and then, as if live action (preferred)... so do it as "cast/cast") for a potential Carmen movie (big movie... think Fellowship Of The Rings-level big... (assuming someone had a big enough story/script, and could find all the other people)... who would you want? -
Jon Eckart:
((The story I'm thinking of is this: Khisondhanna (adopted) - Google Drive
-
Jon Eckart:
I'm working on continuing it, but input would be good. Maybe if it could be finished, maybe it could be printed as a book, or maybe sold as a movie (only for a big amount, and the original author get's a big cut)... if anyone, after reading through that folder (it's a live folder, so updates on my end go live when I save. If you have something to add, stash it someplace and let me know... I'll try to work it in as the story stands.))
